First time in RUSSIA

WSC acts as a catalyst enabling gender diverse startups to spring their business at the vulnerable early stage of inception, through the crucial seed investment until reaching market maturity.

Mission statement:

WSC’s mission is to foster entrepreneurial mindset amongst women, encourage innovation, empower female entrepreneurs, promote a gender diverse company culture, and to increase the ratio of women in leadership roles.

We organize an international competition for gender diverse startups to be held in most European countries, some main cities in the US, China and Israel in 2018, but we are eager to take over the world!

Our ultimate goal is to create an interactive worldwide community of women entrepreneurial role models.

Participate on 2 days bootcamp and then give a 2 minute pitch and receive feedback, advice and business opportunities from our industry expert panel. The winner will be selected to join us in London for a week long mentoring program and a Demo Day event - the big challenge. Winners will be selected by our panel of judges, based on your pitch and the potential success of each project.
